Welcome to a new suburban digital experience

Welcome to the most comprehensive suburban coverage you'll ever need.

In one exciting day, the Chicago Tribune's suburban team grew by nearly 100 reporters and editors, serving readers of 38 publications, from the Wisconsin line all the way into Northwest Indiana. This brings to 50 the number of suburban sections now available on Chicagotribune.com.

These additional resources will complement the thorough local reporting and smart regional watchdog investigations you've come to expect here.

More local news. More close-to-home entertainment and business reporting. More preps coverage from your high schools.

In some communities where the Tribune provided coverage through TribLocal, reporting resources have been merged and you will now find the Pioneer Press title for that town -- only beefed-up with more news. We are bringing together the best of both worlds.

The Pioneer publications have been trusted brands for readers and advertisers in these communities for decades.

And five of our "new" daily newspapers are more than 100 years old. The baby of the group, the Naperville Sun, is about to turn 80.

These tradition-rich publications are in it for the long haul. And so are we, thanks to our unprecedented new reach into the communities where you live.

It's important to us that we also hear from you. We encourage you to let us know what's happening in your town by sharing your own local stories, events, profiles and photos through our community contributor portal. Want to contribute or ask a question? Please use the links below.
